An unprecedented achievement: I have completed a Thing-a-Month project before the end of the month!
Here is Peabey I, sporting his breast cancer awareness scarf in anticipation of October.
I plan to give him to a friend who is grappling with breast cancer treatments, for her birthday this week.
I managed to get through the 8 pages of instruction for Peabey with just one major gaffe, which I was able to graft together after the fact, and a few misreads that required tearing out several rows on a few occasions. I am in awe of Snowden Becker's ability to work out the detailed shaping of the bear. You can see this and other designs here. Cool that she's a professor!
Peabey I is ready for winter. |
I'm using up tiny scraps of Sheltand Wool that I've been accumulating over the past 23 years. This one even has a bit of Campion from the days of my first Fair Isle sweater.
I'm looking forward to our luxury fiber project in October. I'm deciding between qiviut and bison, but I have no idea what I'm going to make. What's your plan?
Love,
Neuro
